The relationship between degassing and ground deformation at Soufriere Hills Volcano, Montserrat

We examine the correlations between SO2 emission rate, seismicity and ground deformation in the month prior to the 25 June 1997 dome collapse of the Soufriere Hills Volcano, Montserrat. During this period, the volcano exhibited a pattern of cyclic inflation and deflation with an 8-14 h period. We fi...
